S1E2 - Henny in Heaven

Cici and Funks plan a small kickback with some old friends from school to blow off some steam... as long as Funks doesn't have to drink her least favorite drink, Henny, that is! However, their night is hijacked by the mean girls of school years past. Suddenly, all goes haywire when Funks is forced to embrace her deepest fantasies, and her Henny aversion, while trapped in the closet with her crush for a game of "7 minutes of Heaven."
